The items that an applicant submits depend on your institution's requirements and can include transcripts, letters of recommendation, and more. Use the Admissions Console or Reviewer Console as your starting point, then open individual application records.

    The verification page neatly organizes application materials for your review.

- **[Add Documents to an Application](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.ec_verify_applications.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**

- **[Add Examination Records to an Application](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.ec_verify_applications.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**

## Get Oriented with the Verification Page

The verification page neatly organizes application materials for your review.

## Accept, Reject, or Update a Requirement

Review a required item for an individual application, set the item's approval status, and manage files and records attached to the item.

1. Click a requirement in the navigation region to verify the data and documents that the applicant has provided. Items for you to verify have the label Ready for Processing along with action buttons to mark their approval status.
2. Mark the approval status for documents or data in the individual application record. To open a document in a preview window, click the name of a checklist item. Some details, such as test scores, don't open in a separate preview window. You verify the information in the application record.
3. To edit a record, click ![Actions menu icon](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sfdo-education_cloud-264-0-0-production-enus/89403874-2a89-4126-b574-9db175c14f28/education_cloud/images/actionsmenu.png) and select **Edit**. Make and save your changes.
4. After you review the item, click **Waive**, **Reject**, or **Approve**. Clicking Approve or Reject updates the status field for the document's Document Checklist Item record, which stores the attachment. To change the status, click **Edit Status**, select a new status, and save your changes.
5. To change the status of a requirement, click **Edit Status**, select a new status, and save your changes.
6. To delete a file or record from an application:
    
    1. Next to the item, click ![Actions menu icon](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sfdo-education_cloud-264-0-0-production-enus/89403874-2a89-4126-b574-9db175c14f28/education_cloud/images/actionsmenu.png) and select **Delete**.
    2. Click **Delete**.

## Add Documents to an Application

If an applicant sends you a last-minute letter of recommendation, or another essay that they want to include with their materials, you can add the document to their individual application record.

1. From the app, open an individual application record.
2. Click **Files** and then click **New**.
3. Enter all relevant information about the new item.
4. Click **Upload Files**, select the file that you want to upload, and then click **Done**.
    
    ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sfdo-education_cloud-264-0-0-production-enus/89403874-2a89-4126-b574-9db175c14f28/images/icon_note.png)
    
    Note Closing the window without deleting the uploaded file removes the file from the individual application record, but not from Salesforce.
5. Save your changes.

View the new document on the application review page and the list of Document Checklist Items.

1. From the Recruitment & Admissions app, open an individual application record.
2. Click **Test Results** and then click **New**.
